The Perks Of Loving Poppy

by R. Gatz

Quinn, a shy young freshman, is taken under the wing of two bold, outgoing seniors, Adrian and Poppy. Quinn falls in love with Poppy's boisterous confidence, but soon discovers Poppy's true self. This is not a plagiarism of the original Perks, it is more of a homage to it. This is a fanfic about what it's like to be young and in love.

1. Chapter 1

Dear Friend,

Hi. My name is Quinn. I'm fourteen, and I'm writing to you because he said you listen and care and I really need someone like you in this time in my life.

Tomorrow, I'm out of the psych ward and into a new school for a new start. It should be like a blast of fresh air- refreshing. It's not.

I'm really, really scared.
